Did you ever figure this out? I have exactly (!) the same problem and it's driving me nuts. I can connect to t-mobile or wayport, but not my Comcast networking at home. Same thing happens, I have excellent wireless connectivity but cannot get to the Internet. -- dennyerardi ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Posted via http://www.mcse.ms ------------------------------------------------------------------------ View this thread: http://www.mcse.ms/message1343607.html

same here. Had brilliant connection until i downloaded SP2 - then i get the
error message "limited or no connectivity".

There is a patch from microsoft (visit www.pchell.com) but I have to say, I
have downloaded this patch, but to no avail...it might work on others.

But if there is anyone who knows what this problem is and how to overcome
it...thats at least 3 of us that would be grateful for any tips! :0)
